2008 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN 1500 Structure Problems

COMPLAINT TO DOCUMENT A SAFETY ISSUE ON A 2008 CHEVY SUBURBAN. SHARP EDGES ON INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES CAUSING SERIOUS INJURIES TO THE HANDS OF PASSENGERS. THE CHROME FINISH IS DELAMINATING FROM THE INTERIOR DOOR HANDLES CAUSING SHARP KNIFE LIKE EDGES AS NOTED ON SEVERAL 2007 GM MODELS IN DEFECT INVESTIGATION REPORT EA10004. MY 2008 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED IN THE PREVIOUS INVESTIGATION. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE BEEN INJURED BY THE SHARP EDGES ON THE DOOR HANDLES IN MY 2008 SUBURBAN WHEN TRYING TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE INSIDE. THE SHARP EDGES HAVE CAUSED DEEP CUTS TO THE HANDS OF MY WIFE, AND HER MOTHER, AS WELL AS MINOR CUTS TO OTHERS. THERE IS A VERY SERIOUS POTENTIAL FOR INFECTION AND TRANSMISSION OF DISEASE BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF BLEEDING FROM THESE INJURIES. DOORS HANDLES INHERENTLY CARRY GERMS, AND BECAUSE THE INJURIES ARE CAUSED BY THESE DOOR...

DASHBOARD BEGAN TO CRACK AT AROUND 50000 MILES. CONTACTED THE DEALER. QUOTED $1400. CONTACTED GM. WAS TOLD I WOULD NEED TO PAY $400 OUT OF POCKET AS A DEDUCTIBLE. I COULDN'T AFFORD IT AT THE TIME SO I HAD TO PASS. BUT I FEEL I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR A FACTORY DEFECT THAT GM CONTINUES TO IGNORE. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN AFFECTED. THIS IS UNSAFE. THE DASHBOARD IS CRACKED AROUND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WHICH COULD CAUSE SHARDS OF PLASTIC TO AFFECT THE FRONT AND DRIVER UPON THE AIRBAG BEING DEPLOYED. *TR

ALSO, HAVE PEELING CHROME ON INSIDE DOOR HANDLES LIKE PRIOR COMPLAINT, THAT IS CUTTING HANDS/FINGERS! *TR
